Routine Maintenance

So far this week:

Visit to the dentist: check.

Eye exam: check.

Mammogram: benign findings, check!

Refill mundane medications: check. 

Flu shot: check. 

Research on when to get the next COVID booster: check. (Not yet, is the answer.)

Routine maintenance is coming along. 

Next up: a three-year follow-up with the kidney doctor, because of the prior kidney stones (likely to be a "see-you-in-another-three-years" visit as long as the routine testing turns up nothing); the dermatologist (fingers crossed, nothing new for them, either); and the migraine doctor; (still need help there). I think that's it! Oh, whoops, one more follow up with the ob/gyn before the end of the year. 

I'm heartily tired of being a semi-Fragile Flower. But at this point, it's becoming pretty important for me to enlist preventative care, before anything goes (additionally) awry. Need to take care of myself. I want to Do Things, Go Places, See People. Need to have decent health to do so. 

One appointment at a time, on we go.
